Timothy Grayson, Chair

ACR 30 (Salas) – As Amended May 28, 2019

SUBJECT: Portuguese National Heritage Month.

SUMMARY: Declares the month of June 2019 as Portuguese National Heritage Month.

Specifically, this resolution makes the following legislative findings:

1) In the early 19th century, the first Portuguese settlers came to California from the Azores

Islands. The largest wave of Azorean immigrants moved to California just before and after

the turn of the 20th century and set up agricultural operations, especially dairy, vegetable,

and fruit farms.

2) Historically, California has been a popular destination for immigrants from the Azores

Islands, creating strong cultural ties between the two regions. Currently there are more than

381,000 persons of Portuguese heritage living in California.

3) In 1994, The University of California, Berkeley, established the Portuguese Studies Program

with the goal "to spotlight the crucial and complex but often overlooked experience and

contributions of the Portuguese-American Community."

4) In March of 2018 Californians of Portuguese ancestry created the only strategic plan in the

United States to teach the Portuguese language and cultures in California public and private

schools, colleges, and universities in order to contribute to the rich linguistic and cultural

diversity of our state and foster a deeper connection and increase economic opportunities

between California and all the Portuguese-speaking countries throughout the world.

5) Portuguese Americans continue to thrive in agricultural communities of the San Joaquin

Valley, including Hanford and Lemoore in Kings County and Shafter, Wasco, and

Bakersfield in Kern County; they have contributed greatly to making market milk the leading

agricultural product by value in both the Counties of Kings and Kern.

6) The Portuguese Heritage Society of California designated the second Saturday of June as a

day to celebrate Portuguese culture through music, dance, art, cooking, parades, and other

festivities.
